|---|---|---|
|Summary of the main<br>achievements of the charity,<br>identifying the difference the<br>charity’s work has made to<br>the circumstances of its<br>beneficiaries and any wider<br>benefits to society as a<br>whole.|Para 1.20|**The Memorial Hall has achieved an**<br>**enormous increase in use since its major**<br>**refurbishment in 2009. The Hall is**<br>**extremely well used by local groups and**<br>**it is remarkable that this has been**<br>**achieved by a dedicated group of**<br>**Volunteer Trustees who meet monthly to**<br>**review, discuss, and to keep everyone**<br>**informed of progress as to the Hall’s use,**<br>**finances, and maintenance. The Hall**<br>**regularly posts articles in the bi/monthly**<br>**Packington Post. (delivered free to every**<br>**household) Through this work, the**<br>**Trustees are enabling the enrichment of**<br>**many lives by providing a space for**<br>**social, educational and fitness/sporting**<br>**groups to access a well organised, up to**<br>**date and well maintained Packington**<br>**Memorial Hall.**|
|**Additional information (optional)**<br>You may choose to include further statements||where relevant about:|
|Achievements against<br>objectives set|Para 1.41|**Since refurbishment, which took place in**<br>**2009 the hall has increased its usage by**<br>**at least four fold and has unfortunately**<br>**had to turn away groups who cannot**<br>**meet the limited time frames still**<br>**available to hire the Hall.**|
|Performance of fundraising<br>activities against objectives<br>set|Para 1.41|**The Memorial Hall has kept its hiring**<br>**rates relatively stable over the last ten**<br>**years. With increase in use and the**<br>**introduction of a Licensed Bar, (where**<br>**the Trustees are the Licence Holder and**<br>**the Hall the sole beneficiary to any profits**<br>**made) the Memorial is in a healthy state**<br>**financially. **|
|Investment performance|Para 1.41|**We have invested in maintaining a good**<br>**looking Community Hall. There is a**<br>**continuous programme of re-decoration.**|

And we pay for**<br>**a cleaning operative to thoroughly clean**<br>**the whole Hall weekly. We also invest in**<br>**telling users to leave the Hall as they find**<br>**it. To assist in finding Memorial Hall User**<br>**Groups we have an active and**<br>**informative Web site managed by a**<br>**volunteer. We also have many Hall users**<br>**who have heard good reports from**<br>**friends and relatives and have**<br>**subsequently used or hired the facilities. **|
